Description:

 

 

Shadow (her original given name was Shelby) is a pure black German Shepherd who was going to be put down at the shelter, which would have been a shame because she is a wonderful, loving and "very smart dog."  Shadow came to me extremely skinny, you could see every bone in her body and her coat was not even her true black color due to her sheer neglect and starvation.

 

 

This wonderful dog is amazing!  She loves people of all ages, dogs of all sizes and cats.  She loves to chase her own shadow for hours; which is why we changed her name, loves to play with her soccer ball or carry her teddy bear around.  Before she goes to her crate at night, shadow loves to go outside and burn the remainder of her energy by playing flash light tag!
This wonderful energetic girl is now healthy and ready to be adopted by a family who is very active, has a large yard or even another dog her size and with her type of energy.  I recommend older children because of her size and playfulness.  Shadow is very obedient, loyal, affectionate, hose broken, love car rides, learning new tricks and loves to be praised!

Last Day Dog Rescue now microchips all animals before adoption. Microchips are implanted between the animals shoulder blades and are a permanent form of identification. The microchips are registered to Last Day Dog Rescue with the adopter's info added once adopted. If the animal is ever lost and slips his/her collar/tags the microchip allows the finder to know who to contact if scanned for a microchip. Animals MUST still have a collar with tags on at all times. Per our contract, we take all our animals back if for any reason you can't keep your adopted animal.

Please understand the statements about this animal are based upon the foster home's evaluation of the animal. The animal might behave differently (negatively or positively) in your home. While the animal might be good with the current foster’s dogs, cats, children, etc., it may not be with your animal(s) or children. The animal may be housebroken or litter trained in the home of the foster but may relapse in your home. The animal is represented to the public as it performs in the foster home and any statements made regarding the animal are conditional to that foster home setting. Please understand that statements made regarding this animal are simply overviews and are not guaranteed.

The Petfinder.com system requires that we choose a predominant breed or breed mix for our animals. Visual breed identification in animals is unreliable so for most of the animals we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each animal as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our animals based on personality, not by breed label.

Thank you for looking through our list of animals needing forever homes and choosing rescue first. We appreciate you stopping by.
